5 Movies That Could Seriously Benefit From Sentimentality At The Oscars

The Oscars are rarely a place that celebrates sequels or films that go beyond their usual comfort zone. However, they can sometimes be a place to celebrate a good comeback story (see Mickey Rourke in The Wrestler and Michael Keaton in Birdman, despite their eventual losses). When it comes to this year’s Oscar race, it’s both a surprise and a no-brainer that some films are gearing up to be in contention for big prizes.

Could it be anything else? It’s not the most anticipated movie of the decade for no reason. After three poorly received prequel films from George Lucas, J.J. Abrams, who successfully revamped Star Trek for a new generation, plans to return the Star Wars saga back into something to be celebrated.

No other film this year will pull at the nostalgic heartstrings quite as much as The Force Awakens will. Expect clapping, crying and all around joy as the saga returns to its roots. The film has missed out on all of the award nominations in the race so far, including the Globes, SAGs and Critics’ Choice Awards, because literally no one had seen it. Now that they have though, the film is getting a lot of praise and is even starting to draw Oscar attention.
